A Reflection of What I Had and Lost Written By Andrade Hall It was said that you could never truly appreciate "a good thing" until its "gone." As a child 1 always wished good would come my way in a form that would yield a state of ultimate happiness felt through mind, body, and soul. Though my vision was always clear and focused on the things that "I' needed to achieve, I often fell blind to the reality that others around me were trying to achieve. The "me, myself, and mentality that I possessed, always sent me on a quest to make life better for "me." As a result, I only saw things that were wrong, that I needed to make right, and I failed to see all the many things around me that were in fact right and exact. With this way of thinking I was quickly perceived as "the one who does what he wants to do when he sees fit to do it." But the one thing people could never say I wasn't, was "a planner." I always seemed to know that things would happen before they actually happened. However, on the 23rd of October I lost something I never thought I would lose MY FATHER.
Over my 20 years of being in his loving presence, I never stopped to see how was a direct reflection of the mind, body and soul of the man that said, "Son I'm gonna raise you to be a better man than me." I never realized as a child that the life I was living was a life that some children had only wished for. It wasn't until recently that I found the true meaning of all the little talks that as a kid I hated my father giving me, and all the material luxuries that made me admired by the friends hung with. It was now, at the age of 21, that I began to see that those same talks and material luxuries were what built the firm foundation of life I now stand upon. It was then that I realized that those same material luxuries are life's rewards for excellence. So now my eyes remain open and keen to what to strive for in the future.
But, the sad reality of all of this is, it is now that I realize that the man that helped build my foundation of life, was one of the greatest man alive. All I wish and pray for is a chance to tell him the way I really feel, and how much I really miss him. In Loving Memory of Our Son RICHARD ANTHONY CORSO Nov. 24, 1952 Nov. 15, 1970 It has been 29 years since you left us.
